Protein Waffle Ice Cream Sandwich

Protein Waffle Ice Cream Sandwich

Serves 5 30 minute prep time

Watch out cookies, there’s a new ice cream sandwich in town! We think these sammies can even count as breakfast, since they include waffles made with plant-based protein powder, and the “ice cream” is made just with bananas.

If we’re in a more decadent mood, we’ll add So Delicious® dairy-free ice cream to the sandwich instead of banana “ice cream” and make it official treat.

  • 1 1/2 tsp ground flax
